Excerpt from The History of Religious Liberty, Vol. 2: From the First Propagation of Christianity in Britain, to the Death of George III., Including Its Successive State, Beneficial Influence, and Powerful Interruptions The presbyterians took a distmgurshed part in promoting the restoration al??? and the king being voted home, a deputa tion was appointed by the parliament and the city of London to attend him. On the list of appointment were eight or ten presbyterian divines; who, upon their arrival at the Hague, signified, in the name of themselves and their brethren, their duty and affection to his majesty; and they thanked God for his majesty's constancy in the protestant religion, and de clared themselves no enemies to moderate episcopacy.

Their re quest was unreasonable, grossly absurd, and directly opposed to the right of private judgment. The king, and all his sub jects, who might be so disposed, had, unquestionably, an equal right to use the Common-prayer in divine worship, as the presbyterians had to use any other prayers. Spiritual usur pation does not consist in the use, but in the imposition of forms of prayer in the worship of God while religious free dom secures invariably to all, an equal share of liberty to use the prayers of their own choice. His majesty, therefore. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ... This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
